Will Johnny Depp ride into O.C. for premiere?

But instead of appearing as Capt. Jack Sparrow, he may come riding in as Tonto.

Disney may host the movie premiere for "The Lone Ranger," starring Depp, at Disney California Adventure, according to Al Lutz of miceage.com, a Disney watchdog website.

Disney officials have declined to confirm that the premiere will be there.

Depp is starring as Tonto in "The Lone Ranger"; Armie Hammer is in the title role of the film, which hits theaters July 3.

So far, Depp has appeared at four movie premieres at Disneyland, for the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films based on the park's ride. Depp, who plays Sparrow in "Pirates," has strolled the red carpet on Main Street, U.S.A. with stars such as Keith Richards, Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom.

The "Pirates" movies were shown on a screen set up on the Rivers of America. But "The Lone Ranger" reportedly could be shown inside the Hyperion Theater in Disney California Adventure, Miceage.com says. The premiere would likely be in June.
